Repeated lies from this source have led most of the Russians to believe that their country is being fenced in by a conspiracy of wicked capitalist nations led by the United States. With misrepresentation that should shame a Barnum, the Soviet press and radio attack us day and night while the Iron Curtain prevents the ordinary Russian from power about as im- accepted with a glib assurance that it would indeed be ready on a specified date. But the customers had ! the devil's own time getting it back, if got it k at all. All in all the service seems to have been far less satisfactory and equitable than under our own system in which the customer, if he does not get his | own laundry, at least gets somebody else’s. Accord- ingly, Comrade Volkhov is now in something of a spot. He could not, as some of our own laundrymen are prone to do, and with some plausibility, blame the shortcomings of his service cn slovenly or inexperi- enced labor. Instead, he rashly blamed it on the shortage and inferior quality of the materials with | which he had to work. The difficult with this ex- cuse was that Comrade Volkhov is also head of the trust which has the responsibility of keeping the laundry supplied. It seems to us to serve Comrade Volkhov ri ioolishly trying to eéxperiment with capitalistic ks. He should have conducted his laundry on pure | xist principles, and have advised the customers called for the return of their extra shirts that | i been reapportioned among these who had ts at @ Is it not written, “From each accord- his gif each according to his need?” ht for no shir Shades of Huey Long!
